Oops! Not all stars end up as a supernova. To become a Type 2 supernova, the star has to be between 8 and 50 times larger than the Sun.
Massive stars that are at least eight times more massive than the Sun end their life as a supernova. During the explosion, these stars release a tremendous amount of energy and can briefly outshine an entire galaxy.
No because smaller stars can live longer than bigger stars and the big stars wont live as long but will end in a very violent explosion.That can result in a major supernova and even a black hole smaller stars will die in a much less violent way.
A supernova is not a single star, but an event that occurs to the most massive stars when they reach the end of their life. Therefore it cannot be named. See related questions for details on Supernova
it is Supernova
A nebula contains stars and other matter; a supernova is just a large enough nova, or star that explodes at the end of its life cycle due to spent fuel
Heavy stars go supernova at the end of their lives.
we all die

They are not. A supernova is an explosion of a star. Blue stars usually end their lives in such explosions.

There is no way of knowing which star will next go "supernova".However, closer to home, Betelgeuse is the most likely to produce a supernova - within humanities lifetime.
The most massive stars will end up as black holes. Those are the stars that have more than approximately 3 solar masses at the end of their life - i.e., AFTER the supernova explosion.

Yes, pulsars are often found in supernova remnants. Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit beams of radiation, and they are formed when a massive star undergoes a supernova explosion. The remnants of the supernova provide the environment from which the pulsar originates.
